With the coming of the evening came the decision of what to do with spare time. For working students, the ringing of the 4:00 bell meant the beginning of another workday. Differ- ent shifts varied from two hours to eight hours in various businesses. However, most students have other activities. Athletics began their work at 3:00, with at least 2 hours of prac- tice, as do cheerleaders and band members. After bus rides up to an hour in length, farm chores are done. FFA boys can be found at the barns getting their livestock ready for the fair. Most of the younger students stop by the drug stores before going home. A number of students preferred to stay home and watch T. V. With fa- vorite shows such as SANFORD AND SON, THE WALTONS, THE JOHNNY CARSON SHOW, and the LATE, LATE SHOW. Most are not regular watcheh but enjoy news shows and specials like the Billy Jean King--Bobby Riggs tennis match, THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF MISS JANE PITTMAN and MON- DAY NIGHT FOOTBALL.

evenings, as teachers promoted the art of keeping busy. Pride in Okla- homa and other essays, Voice of Democracy speeches, book reports, math stumpers and Spanish Dialogue, were among the numerous studies undertaken. While studying, reading, or whatever, there was one sound that could usually be heard in the background of the student's mind . . . . the radio. Some claimed it help- ed them study, while others said it helped take their minds off school, and other problems. Whatever the reason for listening, Seasons in the Sun, by Terry Jacks, Just You and Me, by Chicago, For the Good Times, by Greene, Sunshine, by John Denver, You re Sixteen, by Ringo Starr, and anything Jim Croce rate high with radio fans. While most of Fairview's students don’t like to give book reports, they do like to read. This year's favorite book was THE EXORCIST. Student Life 17 evening
